She is undoubtedly a stupid bitch. However unless she works for Veteran's Affairs - which she doesn't - she should not lose her job over this. Firing someone for using their freedom of speech to say something stupid and offensive would be an insult to the Unknown Soldier who died protecting those freedoms.

It's just a bit of adolescent "oooh, I'm so edgy!" She'll grow up one day.

She should be flogged... Oh wait the unknowns died so she could have the right to be stupid... May God rest the souls of the Unknown Soldiers. And may God give her herpes.

Lets drop her off in Afganistan and let her experience a womans life there. Then we can see how she feels about the men and women who gave their lives for the freedoms she's shitting on.

Idiots will be idiots, see Mikey Moore for a reference. When you refer to yourself as a douchebag, it is pretty clear you have some issues that need addressing. I say, have spend a week or two lifting with Jen, that should grow her up a bit.

Birds gonna bird. But if a human wants to spit on those who fought for their freedom, their boss should be free to express himself by handing her some walking papers.

I know this is a highly emotionally charged subject, so bear with me and don't flame me...

Freedom is obviously a complicated issue since it appears to revolve around only being permitted to do what everyone else feels is correct, permissible, or more to the point "socially permissible" which by essence is not really freedom. He fought and died for her freedoms, as well as everyone else's, yes she should show some respect but insisting that she act in a set manner denies her the very freedom he fought for.

PS: I don't agree with how she conducted herself, I'm just highlighting that freedom is open to interpretation as clearly seen above.

No flames Babs. Its her right to be irritating. I just hate it when people do horrible things like that and then whine that it isn't fair that someone else didn't like it.
